Klippel-trenaunay syndrome: A pedodontist perspective

Abstract

Klippel–Trenaunay syndrome (KTS) is a congenital, uncommon but a well-recognized disorder, characterized by cutaneous hemangiomas, varicosities, and unilateral bone and soft tissue hypertrophy with different localization. Generally diagnosed at birth or first few years of life. KTS represents a syndrome of interest for those in the field of oral and maxillofacial radiology and pathology because of high incidence of variations seen in the orofacial region in affected patients. A case of a 3-year-old female patient with KTS reported to the Department of Pedodontics and Preventive Dentistry for extraction, and we have documented and tabulated the Orodental manifestation of this patient.
